5．We might not be alone in the universe．Actually，it may be confirmed as a very crowded place by new computer models developed to help identify habitable planets．
Estimates of places where life can exist have been based on the possibility of them having surface water．But software recently developed by the Aberdeen University allows researchers to identify planets with underground water kept liquid by heat from planets．
Water is fundamental for life and planets too close to the sun lose water to the atmosphere through evaporation．On the other hand，planets located in distant reaches from their star have their surface water locked away as ice．
Sean McMahon，who is carrying out the work，explained："Traditionally people have said that if a planet is in this Goldilocks zone-not too hot and not too cold-then it can have liquid water on its surface and be habitable．"
But this concept might change when considering that planets can receive two sources of heat-heat direct from the star and heat generated deep inside the planet．
It is easy to observe it in our own planet．As you go down through the crust  of the Earth，the temperature gets higher and higher．Even when the surface is frozen，water can exist below ground．
There could be immense quantities of water in fact-full of primitive life．
Professor John Parnell，also from Aberdeen University said："There is a significant habitat for microorganisms below the surface of the Earth，extending down several kilometers"．
"And some believe that the majority of life on Earth could even reside in this deep biosphere．"
So the Aberdeen team are developing models to predict which distant planets might harbor underground reservoirs of liquid water with the possibility of alien life．
28．What is considered as the symbol of life existence traditionally？D
A．Solid water on its surface．
B．Solid water below ground．
C．Liquid water below ground．
D．Liquid water on its surface．
29．Why did John Parnell mention the fact about Earth？B
A．To prove that there is majority of life on Earth．
B．To prove that life may also exist in other planets．
C．To prove that there is primitive life down through Earth．
D．To prove that there is a habitat for microorganisms below Earth．
30．What theory is the Aberdeen team's study based on？D
A．Planets can lose water through evaporation．
B．Planets can receive heat direct from the star．
C．Planets can have their surface water locked away as ice．
D．Planets can receive heat generated deep inside the planet．
31．What can we know about the computer models？A
A．They will help identify planets where there is life．
B．They will help researchers find Goldilocks zones．
C．They have helped find some significant discoveries．
D．They have already located some habitats for life．
6．Everybody gets angry，but out-of-control anger isn't good for you or those around you．So 
here are five simple strategies to help you learn how to manage your anger：
•Relax．Breathe deeply，from your stomach．（36）F Repeat it to yourself and visualize a relaxing time and experience．
•Change the way you think．When you're angry，your thinking can get exaggerated （夸大的）．（37）A
 For instance，instead of telling yourself，"Oh，it's terrible!Everything's ruined，"tell yourself，"It's understadable that I'm upset about it，but it's not the end of the world．"
（38）•C Statements like"This never works．"or"You're always forgetting things．"will make you feel your anger is justified （情有可原的） and there's no way to solve the problem．
They might upset people who might be willing to work with you on a solution．
•Have a better communication．Angry people tend to jump to conclusions．If you are in a heated discussion，slow down．（39）B And take your time before answering．Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head，think carefully about what you want to say．
•Use humor．Psychologists say that highly angry people tend to think"things ought to go my way!""Silly humor"can help you get a more balanced perspective．So，when you feel that anger coming the next time，picture yourself as a king or queen，walking around，admired by everybody，and getting your own way in every situation．The more detail you can get into your
imaginary scenes，the more likely it is to put a smile on your face．（40）G

A．Try replacing these thoughts with more reasonable ones．
B．Listen carefully to what the other person is saying．
C．Be careful with words like"never"or"always"．
D．Avoid using these strategies when you're in a tense situation．
E．Try changing the topics so your talks won't turn into arguments．
F．Then slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as"take it easy"．
G．That will help you realize that the things you're angry about are really not very important．
3．The number of people employed inagriculture（农业） has fallen in the last decade．
10．Every year on my birthday，from the time I turned 12，a white gardenia was delivered to my house．No card came with it．Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all．After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender's name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper．?
But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be． Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender．My mother encouraged these imaginings．She'd ask me if there was someone for whom I had done a special kindness．Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I'd delivered during the winter．As a girl，though，I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I had run into．?
One month before my graduation，my father died．I felt so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance，and I didn't care if I had a new dress or not．But my mother，in her own sadness，would not let me miss any of those things．She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable．In truth，my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia-lovely，strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery（神秘）．?
My mother died ten days after I was married．I was 22．That was the year the gardenia stopped coming．

25．Which of the following would be the best title for the text？A

27．Who was the sender of the flower？C

7．Does Fame Drive You Crazy？
Although being famous might sound like a dream come true，today's stars，feeling like zoo animals，face pressures that few of us can imagine．They are at the center of much of the world's attention．Paparazzi （狗仔队） camp outside their homes，cameras ready．Tabloids（小报） publish thrilling stories about their personal lives．Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature!
According to psychologist Christina Villarreal，celebrities-famous people-worry constantly about their public appearance．Eventually，they start to lose track of who they really are，seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them，not as the people they were before everyone knew their names．"Over time，"Villarreal says，"they feel separated and alone．"
The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages．In the 4th century BC，painters followed Alexander the Great into battle，hoping to picture his victories for his admirers．When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century，his sold-out readings attracted thousands of fans，leading him to complain about his lack of privacy．Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do．
Being a public figure today，however，is a lot more difficult than it used to be．Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras．When they say something silly or do something ridiculous，there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their"story"alive forever．
If fame is so troublesome，why aren't all celebrities running away from it？The answer is there are still ways to deal with it．Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities．They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place．
Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice．Still，even stars who enjoy full justice often complain about how hard their lives are．They are tired of being famous already．

32．It can be learned from the passage that stars todayB．
A．are often misunderstood by the public
B．can no longer have their privacy protected
C．spend too much on their public appearance
D．care little about how they have come into fame
33．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3？B
A．Great heroes of the past were generally admired．
B．The problem faced by celebrities has a long history．
C．Well-known actors are usually targets of tabloids．
D．Works of popular writers often have a lot of readers．
34．What makes it much harder to be a celebrity today？A
A．Availability of modern media．
B．Inadequate social recognition．
C．Lack of favorable chances．
D．Huge population of fans．
35．What is the author's attitude toward modern celebrity？D
A．Disappointed．
B．Sceptical．
C．Disapproving．
D．Sympathetic．
4．--Do you mind if I go out this evening？

A．ever sinceB．in caseC．as long asD．even though
5．Language barriers make it difficult for most people ____ foreign counties as individual tourist．（　　）
